ROAD TRIP TO HOMER AK

One place everyone who has been in Alaska told us we must  go to Homer. The drive alone Cook Inlet was AWESOME!!! Our first stopped was Anchor Point "America's Most Westerly Highway Point". We drove down this road and ended at the boat launch.
What a surprise to see how they take out & put in the boats because of the tides. Take a look!


Tractor goes out and then the fishing boat trailers up. When the tide is down the shore becomes heavy mud. Many people have drown because they get stuck and the tide comes up and can't escape.




                                                               Time to get out!!



                                                                         Next !!!



Boat is ready to go fishing!!!



AMAZING!!! Our view while we were watching the boats




We continued on to Homer


And we came upon this hill overseeing Homer Spit...
WOW!!
It's a long narrow of land jutting 4.5 miles into Kachemak Bay



Kenai Mountain


Salty Dawg Saloon
 Alaska's best known frontier bars and Dan is waiting on me to go have a cold one!




Inside you find dollar bills stapled to the walls & ceiling.
I think Dan is trying to pick up this chick!!!



The city's picturesque boardwalk dates back to the 1930's, lots of shops & restaurants



Marina full of boats AND the season hadn't started yet





One Day............ SOON!!! 

Eat your heart out Tom Hunt
